The book is well written and is largely self-sufficient, but Philip helped me get oriented to using it efficiently, and I appreciate being able to ask Philip for clarification of concepts and for additional info about computer science that isn't covered in the book. I also appreciate Philip's encouraging me to manage my life well and to work diligently so that I will be able to achieve my career goals.

Michael P. is that person. I leave every tutoring session understanding more about my topic and feeling more confident in my Computer Science class. Michael has stood up strong under my barrage of constant questions. He is competent in the subject matter, very patient, and good at explaining complicated topics. I am comfortable working with him and have been able to work out scheduling very easily.

We had such a positive experience with him. He is professional, highly qualified, very well organized, and funny. He creates a comfortable atmosphere for learning. My son would feel exhausted after class with other tutors, but after class with Ryan he was motivated and full of energy. Ryan inserted a new confidence in my son’s own abilities. My son is a senior in high school and his acceptance into a college depends on his performance on his AP computer science exam.
